There were not many connections between Qi and Duan Chengrui.

However, after arriving at the study room, Qi Rou caught a whiff of a faint medicinal fragrance, and Duan Chengrui was indeed as gentle and refined as the rumors said, but he was not as aloof as he was from the world.

"If it's for Meng Xu's promotion, there's no need to talk about it anymore."

Duan Chengrui stuffed the paper into the bamboo tube without even raising his head, then he uncaringly passed the paper slip to his subordinate in front of her.

"Duan Chengxuan has already taken out the child of Crown Princess Jing and used him as a medicinal catalyst."

As soon as Qi Rou finished speaking, the tip of Duan Chengrui's pen began to faint on the paper. She slightly raised her head and tightly knitted her brows. "I never thought that Imperial Uncle would be so heartless. Then Princess Jing …"

"She did not call me over. I have only come to inform you about this matter. After that, I hope that I can obtain some rewards from the Third Prince." Qi Rou's lips quirked up as she put on her usual business look, "My father had a deal with King Jing, but I don't think he is as good as you. I'm more inclined to work with you."

Duan Chengrui's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Gu Danyan was always able to attract capable people by her side, but now, King Jing's Duan Chengxuan's reputation had long been tarnished by Su Yu Wan's incident. Su Yu Wan was the true beauty that brought disaster to women, and it was just that Duan Chengxuan's greed for the throne made him want to give Su Yu Wan a proper name, but the truth was the opposite.

The more he cared about Su Yu Wan and doted on her for taking any risks, the more he would take a step further away from the throne.

"Princess Jing came to negotiate with me after she was faced with such a great calamity. What would she think?"

Duan Chengrui looked at her with interest. He should have looked down on these rich young ladies for their wealth and empty stomachs, but today, he felt that this Qi Rou was extremely interesting.

"Of course she'll support me. Moreover, I'm not here to sell off Duke Jing's plans. I can only pass along a message for you and Princess Jing. Once you can help me obtain the Qi Family, I'll definitely serve you." Qi Rou said softly.

"I don't know what you're capable of."

"Then, I will make you look at me in a new light, for it is snowing today, please pay attention to your body, and do not get caught in the cold." Qi Rou stood up gracefully and left under Duan Chengrui's curious gaze.

Only when there was only one person left in the room did Duan Chengrui raise his eyebrows and ask the subordinate beside him, "This Qi Rou is somewhat similar to Gu Daiyan, but the thing she wants is much simpler. She has a huge amount of money and power, but, what does Gu Liuyan want?"

The subordinates beside him only thought for a moment before shaking their heads.

Duan Chengrui didn't know the answer either, but he was even more curious.

Gu Liuyan awoke from the pain. Her eyelashes trembled as she enjoyed the pain.

The pain made her extremely clear-headed, and the slight pain caused by the silk threads rubbing against her wrists became even more distinct. When she opened her eyes, she saw the Four Seasons diagram she had seen in the study.

Look, she didn't die, she gambled everything on Duan Chengxuan.

All the doctors were talking at once, and she only needed to make sure that she wouldn't make a sound as she laid on the soft couch like a puppet. Only if she was soft enough and tender enough to make people love her would she be able to make a bastard like Duan Chengxuan even more.

She was once an almighty figure, but now, with just a slight change, she would be able to obtain sufficient care and care from Duan Chengxuan.

This was just a little trick to play with others' hearts, not to mention that Duan Chengxuan liked him.

"Princess, do you feel any pain?" the doctor beside her asked softly, noticing that she was awake.

"When will Tian Yan celebrate the New Year?" She asked a question that didn't matter in the least, but the doctors were patient.

It will be the New Year when the second snowfall of the Sky Flame comes, six or seven days later.

They never set New Year's Day, they only follow the second snowfall.

"But I think, Princess can only spend the New Year in her house. Your body is already too weak, it's best if you don't get caught in the cold, or else you might …"

"I know." Gu Danyan was also a doctor. She pretended to be in despair as she raised her hand: "But why did you save me …"

The doctors looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

Only the doctor who had spoken with her in the Hall of the Healing had said, "Just like you treated those people, it is the responsibility of the doctor to prolong life."

Gu Liuyan felt her heart being touched. The warmth of a stranger flowed into her heart, slightly alleviating the chill in her heart.

However, she still pretended not to care and just closed her eyes heavily.

The doctors had no choice but to stay by her side.

Only when Duan Chengxuan returned from Su Yuwan's side, sent all the doctors away, closed the door to the study, and sat by Gu Daiyan's bedside to tidy up her messy hair and wipe away her sticky sweat, did Gu Liuyan open her listless eyes and say, "You win, I can't win against you …"

A teardrop fell from the corner of her eye.

"We'll have another child." Duan Chengxuan bent down and pressed his forehead against hers.

"No, I don't have anything else …" No one would like a cold-blooded and heartless person. Even my children have left me. " She didn't struggle at all. She only had despairing eyes.

She had imagined a baby crying, a baby with small hands and feet and big eyes.

She or he would grab her cold palm...

There was nothing left now.

Tears ran down her cheeks.

Duan Cheng Xuan had no choice but to do this, but a person who was always going against him revealed a fragile expression that stung his heart.

Cheng Shan stood outside the screen and listened to everything inside. "Prince, Lady Wan-Er …"

"Just say that This King has important documents to deal with, don't let her know." Duan Chengxuan picked up the person on the soft couch, and those who closed their eyes wouldn't even let out any exclamations of surprise. They would only close them and drift along with the waves.

It was Duan Chengxuan who had destroyed Gu Danyan.

The heavy snow had yet to stop, so Duan Chengxuan carried her to sleep. When she woke up, she did not leave, but lay lifelessly on the bed without saying a word. However, Duan Chengxuan still patiently fed her medicine and food.

And in the main courtyard.

Su Yuwan clenched her blanket in disbelief and shouted hysterically: "I knew Gu Danyan was a fox spirit! Why isn't Big Brother Xuan accompanying me! but to accompany her! "

Embroidered, it was rare for her to kneel silently at the side, only Mu Qing gloomily replied, "She is already miserable enough."

"If she hadn't insisted on being Big Brother Xuan's consort back then, she wouldn't have ended up like this!" Su Yuwan used her pillow to smash Mu Qing's face. Her hysterical roar was tinged with tears.

It was obvious that Elder Brother Xuan had already taken out the child in Gu Meiyan's womb for her.

Gu Liuyan was already useless! But why is Big Brother Xuan still by her side!?
